4.20 Report Builder 1
You can hardly go anywhere today without hearing about database management, warehousing, and mining. What do these terms mean? And how do credit union employees participate in these new concepts? CU*BASE Report Builder uses the IBM program called Query, a powerful, flexible tool for mining data from your CU*BASE member data. This class will cover pre-defined inquiry options found throughout the CU*BASE menu system and outline the steps to create a very simple custom report. The concepts covered in this class are used in many CU*BASE products, from teller auditing to cash management to general member inquiries. It is important that the credit union's own internal trainers understand the basic concepts in this course so that they can help credit union employees as they use CU*BASE every day. Join us on Wednesday January 15th from 3:00 to 4:30.

FEP/ING: Foundation Projects for Our Sustainable Future
The key to long-term sustainability, especially for a technology-oriented organization like CU*Answers, is the evolution of a product's foundation. Our network is based on technology solutions that are counted on over the long haul. CU*Answers is over 40 years old, and many of our relationships have lasted well over 20 years. What have we learned over these decades? That our software and solutions need to stay young and be constantly evolving. We have learned how to partner for the long term and keep our solutions fresh and current. For more information regarding the FEP/ING project please click here.
